[Verse 1]

Lookin' up, starlight

Take me there, yeah I wanna fly

Wanna feel the rush to the front row
D
Paycheck, late again

Barely hangin' on to the apartment

Doin' it my way
Em
Ain't nothin' free 'bout the free way
[Pre-Chorus]
D A
But I'm miles off the ground
Bm F#m D
I'm leavin' this whole mad city to burn

And I'll watch it go down, ooh
Bm N.C.
'Cause that sun gon' take me with it, hey
[Chorus]
D A
And I'm buildin' a fire, fire, oh
Bm F#m
I'm buildin' it higher, higher, oh
D A
I'm gonna run this empire higher, oh
Bm N.C.
And if I go down in flames, the smoke gonna spell my name
D A Bm F#m [x2]

Lipstick, red wine

Long nights, it's a lifestyle

But I'm miles off the ground

I'm leavin' this whole mad city to burn
